Yesterday is smoked a joint and really had to lie down, my heart was pounding really hard and it felt like it was coming out of my chest. When i layed down and closed my eyes i had lsd like caleidoscopic visuals. I am also taking 1500 mg rhodiola rosea and 1350mg bacopa monnieri spread throughout the day in 3 doses. Does anyone know if this combination might potentiate cannabis in any way? For me it feels like it does.

A few strains of Cannabis Sativa will make my heart race something fierce, I avoid them. And Indica will never do that to me. And I've never heard of those plants/drugs/substances you're taking, so I've no clue how they'd interact with the sticky green. But from my experience cannabis pretty much exclusively potentiates anything else you're on,
I know someone who had literally exactly the same experience a few weeks ago, the heart coming out his chest and all. He said that he had aspects of a trip on 25c-nbome from around 2 weeks ago come into it. Overall a strange experience, the weed was amnesia haze so a sativa heavy, very strong.

First time i ever smoked weed I was close to tripping, It was right off my friends plants. Peoples faces were honestly morphing, ground was swirling a little and it was hard to see properly, never even came close to that feeling since

Some people these days add Cannabinoids to their marijuana to increase potency. The same stuff added to "herbal incense"

Was this person using 25c alot around the time this happened? I find that if I start tripping often visuals are strongly increassd when I smoke weed. Heavy use of psychedelics makes weed highs incredibly trippy for me.

There are many Sativa strains that are quite trippy. Especially Pure Sativas. I love em!
To be honest 'my friend' is me and this was my second post or whatever so didn't know about the lack of SWIM, but yeah, I had a bad trip on the 25c-nbome as I got told the tab was 600µg but was 1200 :/ it was also my first time doing it so it was fair to say i was rather out of my depth as I was not expecting as intense a trip. I had been using psychedelics relatively heavily around the time, I found that the visuals aspects weren't very similar, it just seemed to be the headspace that was similar, but yes there were relatively intense visuals and I have decided to take a break from all drugs except LSD for medicinal purposes for 2 months (I use LSD in small doses for migraine prevention) to try and regain the mildness of weed.

Some strains are more visual than others and give nice CEVs. I also get Open eye visual effects from some strains (Wappa, e.g., the visual field almost becomes a low res RGB scheme). Sonoma Coma, one of the best strains I've tried recently, offers great CEVs. There may be something about my own chemistry that causes this, but I've gotten some feedback from others that leads me to believe that at least part of it is strain related.

weed does not make you hallucinate, it could from the past of your other drugs use combined with weed gave you a flashback
I agree that this is the case most of the time, but I have known people with low tolerances and no other drugs taken in the past eating a sativa edible and reporting a trip. From how they explained it it wasn't very similar to any tryptamine or PEA, but never the less definitely more than a typical marijuana high, it is very rare though and i think in OP's case it is probably due to other medication.

Wife had oobe on hash vape. It was about a 90 minute episode of her coming in and out of lala land and was composed of "polar" experiences: nightmarish lows and peak experiences back and forth the whole time.

This happened to me after I broke a 3-year abstinence from cannabis several years ago. I ate a sugary cookie made with a little over half a joint of mid-grade smoke. It was so intense, I actually "broke through" and lost track of who or what I was. I saw the birth of subatomic matter in empty space, and its evolution into higher forms of matter. So not only can you trip on weed, you can actually break through on it! You just need to eat enough of it when your tolerance is really low

Good to hear! Weed is definitely a much more powerful substance than most people give it credit for.

Yeah, it was awesome. It probably would have been scary as well, had the trip not progressed so quickly and left my ego in the dust
I should have mentioned that back then I wasn't taking any other substances, save for morning caffeine and B6 & melatonin in the evenings.I was expecting a bunch of people to call BS on my story, since you don't really hear about people breaking through on cannabis

So is this a new discovery, or what? Should we all be heading to the store to pick up some rhodiola?

If you're looking to potentiate weed i guess yes, but i find it potentiates it to a point where it's not fun anymore.

It's not always about having "fun" imo
Anyway, it seems like rhodiola contains a plethora of chemicals... I'll need to do some more research before I go out and get myself some (coming from somebody who doesn't always practice good HR, hehe).
